God's creation inspires Mey. She says," I want the world to experience this through my works and to see it as it really is and not just arbitrary occurrences. There is such precision, power, life and beauty in the ocean, air, earth and all the beings of our planet. The attention to detail in creation is atomically perfect. Energies and emotions are drawn from each item, be it a stone or a magnificent mountain. I try to capture this elevation or destruction in my art work. I'd like one to understand the depth of the experience of what I paint of that moment."
